I am writing a script to create rules. That is fine but I cannot determine how to change to a certain folder before starting to create the rules. I have two email accounts in Outlook. I want to select the second account and a folder in that account (not Inbox) and have the rules creation script move the specified email to sub-folders in this folder.

Something like:
cd \\account name\Filter Folder
would be the pseudo code.

Thank you

you'll need to use the getfolderpath function
Working with VBA and non-default Outlook Folders

creating the folders uses code like this, where the parent folder is set using the getfolderpath function
Code: 
Dim objNewFolder As Outlook.Folder
Set objNewFolder = objParentFolder.Folders(newFolderName)
If objNewFolder Is Nothing Then
Set objNewFolder = objParentFolder.Folders.Add(newFolderName)
End If
